Neglected Tropical Diseases: A Chemoinformatics Approach for the Use of Biodiversity in Anti-Trypanosomatid Drug Discovery.
Review in Biomolecules, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The development of new treatments for neglected tropical diseases (NTDs) remains a major challenge in the 21st century. In most cases, the available drugs are obsolete and have limitations in terms of efficacy and safety. The situation becomes even more complex when considering the low number of new chemical entities (NCEs) currently in use in advanced clinical trials for most of these diseases. Natural products (NPs) are valuable sources of hits and lead compounds with privileged scaffolds for the discovery of new bioactive molecules. Considering the relevance of biodiversity for drug discovery, a chemoinformatics analysis was conducted on a compound dataset of NPs with anti-trypanosomatid activity reported in 497 research articles from 2019 to 2024. Structures corresponding to different metabolic classes were identified, including terpenoids, benzoic acids, benzenoids, steroids, alkaloids, phenylpropanoids, peptides, flavonoids, polyketides, lignans, cytochalasins, and naphthoquinones. This unique collection of NPs occupies regions of the chemical space with drug-like properties that are relevant to anti-trypanosomatid drug discovery. The gathered information greatly enhanced our understanding of biologically relevant chemical classes, structural features, and physicochemical properties. These results can be useful in guiding future medicinal chemistry efforts for the development of NP-inspired NCEs to treat NTDs caused by trypanosomatid parasites.
